Chapter 16: The Mysterious Side
*Ehem*
Fein took one look at her and decided it was time to get what he came here for. “Can I go to the library right now?”
“Yes, follow me, but I warn you, the information contained in this library is very valuable. It was a secret that only important people would know, so don’t let your greed get the best of you. You have to make sure you get what you really need. You are now at your own risk,” she said.
Fein looked at her, and while she appears na?ve on the outside, it seems that she had some maturity within her. It was, however, understandable. Because she is the daughter of a prestigious family. She had to deal with politics and other people’s machinations on some occasions.
Fein was currently lacking in information. Ignorance could cost him his dear life in this dangerous world. That’s why he decided to gather as much information as possible. He can only make a rational decision if he has all the relevant information that he needed. Regardless of how intelligent someone is...
He’ll never be able to do anything without information. Because you can’t build a wall unless you have bricks, just as detectives require clues in order to reach a conclusion. That’s how vital information was...
Fein immediately followed her into a creepy-looking underground...
.....
‘As expected, exactly like in the movies of my previous life.’
...
-5 minutes later-
They arrived at a normal-looking wall.
‘Would it be the thing where you press the wall and the door suddenly opens?’
Fein pondered as he stared doubtfully at the door.
Sofia made a mysterious face as she looked at him. She began to fondle the wall as if looking for something.
‘As expected, just like in the movies,’ Fein thought with disappointment.
After a while, the wall began to tremble, just like in the movies... The wall split into two sides, exposing the entrance completely.
Fein just stood there, staring at the scene, unconcerned. Sofia looked at Fein as if she was waiting for a reaction.
He just smiled as he looked at her. When she saw this, she turned around and asked, disappointed. “Hey, why are you so calm? Don’t you want to ask me some questions? Aren’t you interested in what’s going on right now?”
“Not really. I was expecting something like this,” Fein said with a proud smile.
Sofia simply looked at him suspiciously before turning around to lead the way.
*Sigh*
“Why can’t anyone believe an honest person like me?” Fein muttered quietly as he contemplated about the harsh reality...
Fein looked at her with his eyes half-closed, but she just looked at him like he was a fool.
‘Ops... It appears that someone has grown accustomed to my teasing,’ He reflected inwardly and resolved to abandon his terrible sense of humor.
Just like that, they walked at a steady pace for at least eight minutes because of the darkness in the tunnel. In the quiet place, they could only hear the sound of their footsteps.
The light at the end of the tunnel was finally visible in front of them. What greets Fein as he emerged from the tunnel is...
It’s like a WHOLE NEW WORLD...
There was a mountain of books in front of them, and Fein expected the place to be orderly, but he didn’t expect to see such a complete mess. freewe bnovel.com
“You might be wondering why this place is so messy,” Sofia said jokingly.
‘This girl now has the upper hand on me,’ Fein grumbled as he subconsciously clicked his tongue in annoyance.
“Well, do entertain me,” Fein said, crossing his arms in front of his chest while looking at her directly in the eyes.
Sofia puffed her chest proudly and smiled triumphantly at Fein.
‘Is this what it means when they say you got a taste of your own medicine?’
Fein cursed himself for being such a jerk.
“Well, you got me right there, so can you explain what the point of this is?” Fein inquired, because he’s really interested in the place.
“Follow me. It’s better to show you,” she says, returning to her serious demeanor.
They’re now standing in front of a book, with Sofia typing on it as if it were a keyboard.
‘How on earth is that even possible?’ Isn’t this a technologically backward place?’ Fein couldn’t help but wonder.
Sofia shifted her gaze to Fein and asked. “So, what do you want to learn first?”
“Well, first and foremost, I’d like to learn about this world’s Mysterious side...” Fein stated flatly.
Sofia gave him a strange look but said nothing. She quickly began to move her fingers in the book as if typing something. Fein looked at the book with interest, but it was just a blank page.
‘Is there some type of condition here? And one connected to Vladimir’s family? Is this their method of preventing information leaks? If that’s the case, this is a brilliant way to keep a secret.’ Questions begin to arise in his mind.
Despite the fact that this world’s technology is outdated. There are so many things that even advanced science in his previous life couldn’t explain.
Sofia finally turned her attention to Fein after ensuring that everything was in order. She handed him a sheepskin-covered book and said. “This is the detailed information of this world’s supernatural side,” she stated solemnly.
Fein examined the book with interest and decided to turn the page slowly. When he saw the first page, he was shocked; after another eight pages, he was horrified; and after finishing the book, his face was numb.
Fein finally understood why they kept the information a secret. After all, the information he just read has the potential to turn the entire world upside down. Even him, was still having trouble believing it.
He took a deep breath to calm his tense nerves. He looked at Sofia, who was staring at the floor.
‘she must have known what was in this book for a long time. What a poor child... This book should not be allowed outside because it will incite riots and panic among ordinary people. There is no doubt that chaos will engulf the entire world. This world is real...’ Fein turned his head at Sofia with pity.
Because just now, what he saw in the book was...
